I never got the wardrobe memo for motherhood. Black and white stripes, for a lifetime of refereeing. I’m thankful that God gave me a natural whistle (also known as a loud mouth).
Some days (most days) I have no idea what I’m doing or what I’ve gotten myself into. It’s all I can do to keep on breathing. To stay afloat.
God gave me these children for a reason. He never makes a mistake, so I will once again, trust in Him. He loves my children leaps and bounds more than my heart even loves… so I can trust Him completely.
I want to finish well… this thing called motherhood. I know there will be many mistakes and heartaches along this journey; spilled milk and spilled out angry words you wish you could swallow back up and prepare for a more godly response.
On that jagged piece of holy criss-crossed wood, He spilled out His crimson blood and exhaled the most beautiful sigh….
It is finished…
Because He finished well, so can I.
